[Intro]
Ladies and gentleman, to continue
Please warmly welcome with us
Creedence Clearwater Revival
[Verse 1]
A-when I was just a little boy
A-standin' to my Daddy's knee
My papa said, "Son, don't let the man get you
And do what he done to me"
'Cause he'll get you, Lord
Get you right now, now
[Verse 2]
And I can remember the fourth of July
A-runnin' through the back woods bare
And I can still hear my ol' hound dog barkin'
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou, alright, yeah
Born on the bayou
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I wish I was back on the bayou
Rollin' with some Cajun queen, Lord
Wishin' I wеre a fast freight train
I'm just a-chooglin' on down to New Orlеans
[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou, alright, yeah
Born on the bayou
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
And I can remember the fourth of July
A-runnin' through the back wood bare
And I can still hear my ol' hound dog barkin'
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou, alright, yeah
Born on the bayou, do, do, do
[Outro]
Ah, thank you very much
Can you get that thing on?
Is it on now?
Get it goin'
Test, one, two, three
Come on
We'd like to just move right along with, uh
One of them shorties called "Green River"
(I can't hear a thing)
